The image is a close-up photograph of an ancient, circular coin with inscriptions and imagery on both sides. The coin appears to be made of a metal such as bronze, indicated by its brown coloration and the patina indicative of age.

On the left side of the image is the obverse of the coin, featuring the profile of a man's head facing to the right. The man has stylized features common to ancient coinage, with a robust nose, prominent chin, and appears to be wearing some form of headgear that might suggest a military or imperial rank. Around the edge is an inscription in a script that appears to be Latin, reading "IMP DIOCLETIANVS P F AVG".

On the right side of the image is the reverse side of the coin, depicting a standing figure, possibly a deity or personification, holding objects that could be symbolic, such as a staff or scepter in one hand and perhaps a cornucopia or some other emblematic item in the other. Around the figure is an inscription, also in a script similar to Latin, reading "GENIO POPVLI ROMANI". The figures and lettering have a raised relief, suggesting they were stamped or cast into the metal.

The image also includes a scale reference with measurements in centimeters, indicating that the coin is roughly 2 to 3 centimeters in diameter.

This image shows both sides (obverse and reverse) of what appears to be an ancient Roman coin, likely a follis from the Diocletian era (around late 3rd to early 4th century CE). The coin is made of bronze or copper and appears to be well-preserved.

The obverse (left side) shows a profile portrait of a Roman emperor wearing a laurel wreath, facing right. The reverse (right side) shows a standing figure, likely representing a deity or personification, holding what appears to be traditional Roman symbolic objects.

The coin has Latin inscriptions around both sides, though they're not entirely clear in this image. The surface shows the typical dark brown patina that develops on ancient bronze coins over centuries. A measurement scale is visible on the right side of the image, indicating this is likely a professional numismatic photograph.

The quality of preservation allows for good detail to be seen in both the portrait and the reverse design, making this a good example of Roman coinage from this period.

Google Gemini

Created by gemini-2.0-flash on 2025-06-13

The image shows two sides of an ancient coin, likely made of bronze or a similar metal, resting against a black background. To the right of the coin is a scale marked in centimeters.

On the left side of the image, one side of the coin displays a profile portrait of a figure facing to the right. The figure appears to have a short haircut and a distinctive square head covering, possibly a diadem or a crown, which is indicative of royalty or high status. The coin has an inscription around the edge of the profile, but it's difficult to discern the exact lettering due to the coin's condition and the image resolution.

The right side of the image shows the other side of the same coin, which depicts a standing figure, possibly a deity or a royal figure, holding objects in each hand. The figure is draped in what seems to be a tunic or a long robe. There is an inscription surrounding the figure, mirroring the layout of the inscription on the obverse side.

Both sides of the coin show signs of wear and corrosion, with some areas of the coin’s surface appearing dark and pitted. This wear is typical of ancient coins that have been buried or circulated for many years. The scale next to the coin indicates its size.
